Did you build a mdadm raid1 or a dm-raid raid 1?

+imsm means you built a dm-raid device (software raid that the
bios/efi is aware of) and it is slightly different from a normal
mdadm.

If it works and uses the correct device names on each boot up then I
would not touch it.

If you do touch it then you will need to rebuild the initramfs as that
file will be in the initramfs so that it can start up the raid to boot
the node.
